The fundamental basis of muscle contraction ‘the sliding filament model’ (Huxley and Niedergerke, 1954; Huxley and Hanson, 1954) and the ‘swinging, tilting crossbridge-sliding filament mechanism’ (Huxley, 1969; Huxley and Brown, 1967) nucleated a field ...

The invasion of the erythrocyte by Plasmodium falciparum depends on the ability of the merozoite to move through the membrane invagination. This ability is probably mediated by actin dependent motors.

Breaking the clip for cargo unloading from motor proteins: mechanism and significance
The mitochondrion is an essential organelle involved in ATP generation, lipid metabolism, regulation of calci- um ions, etc. Therefore, it should be inherited properly by newly generated cells.

Single molecule mechanics resolves the earliest events in force generation by cardiac myosin
Key steps of cardiac mechanochemistry, including the force-generating working stroke and the release of phosphate (Pi), occur rapidly after myosin-actin attachment.

Type-I myosins promote actin polymerization to drive membrane bending in endocytosis
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis in budding yeast requires the formation of a dynamic actin network that produces the force to invaginate the plasma membrane against the intracellular turgor pressure.

In vivo movement of the type V myosin Myo52 requires dimerisation but is independent of the neck domain [PDF]
Intracellular movement is a fundamental property of all cell types. Many organelles and molecules are actively transported throughout the cytoplasm by molecular motors, such as the dimeric type V myosins.
